[coolanddark]

Outstanding! These old folk songs are the best!

[raymondcrooke]

@coolanddark Thanks, Dan. Not sure why it took me so long to get around to this one.

[coolanddark]

@raymondcrooke Do you know `no more auction block for me`? Maybe you already posted it. If not I would love to hear you sing that one! Got that song on my mind lately for some reason! Dylan did that one so great!

[raymondcrooke]

@coolanddark Yes. I do it as part of a trilogy with "Oh Freedom" and "Motherless Child." You can find it here: /watch?v=8D5SDOB_PGQ

[raymondcrooke]

@1952banjo Thanks, Vivian. It took me a while to get around to it, though it's one I've known most of my life.

@williamajk Thanks for watching, Willie.

I first heard it from Pete Seeger, and didn't understand it because he sang it in such a jolly fashion. It was Odetta's version that actually made me understand the song. I like it. You do a good job here.

[raymondcrooke]

@SirCoughsalot Yes, it's not exactly a jolly song. Odetta has always been one of my favourite singers.

[blinddrunkal]

a really beautiful and tender version Raymond - I Love it - all the best :o) Alan

[raymondcrooke]

@blinddrunkal Thanks for the video response, Alan. I like your version - very different words from mine!
